I did do the one on Friday on the other thread. I think they will have the one on Sunday, but I may not go depending on the weather.

I hope the bad weather will hold off here tomorrow. A fellow priest who was in Fr. Bro's class (Fr. Ken) his mother died this week and the wake is tomorrow. We're going and don't want to fight the weather conditions.

Re: An Old-Fashioned Curmudgeon Christmas Carol: Bah Humbug!
Prayers for Fr. Ken and for the repose of his mother's soul.
No changes in the coffee for Christmas. It's still Mudgie coffee. Have a cup.   
47 degrees and foggy. Mostly cloudy today with a high of 75. It will be warm most of the week, with seasonal temperatures returning Friday.
Lil finally closed the motel thread. Still missing are Carol Ann and Zooey, in addition to the others already mentioned. Uncle David hasn't been in in a while, either. Send out that mangy looking dog to round up the prodigals.
Echoing Wander's sentiments, Bah, humbug!

Well. The Baked beans are on. I have combined all but the bacon and tomato sauce. Will do that after it heats up.

Re: An Old-Fashioned Curmudgeon Christmas Carol: Bah Humbug!
When I was young(er), I used to mock the older guys who said they needed a cup of coffee to get their hearts started in the morning.
Now I need at LEAST two cups. The first one gets absorbed directly into the sidewalls of the throat. Never even hits bottom.
Somebody did me one Christian kindness. They bought me a 20 ounce cup. Now I can get a decent cup of coffee.
Speaking of which. Need a refill.
[Getting old is not for the faint of heart.]
